Learning to Love a Dachshund
Dachshundnoun: a dog of a very short-legged, long-bodied stature. Insanely stubborn with a big ego. As a child growing up, I always had large dogs. Golden Retrievers, Kelpies, Labradors. I fell in love with large dogs - and whilst I liked all dogs great and small, I remember thinking: "I want to have a Golden Retriever when I grow up". As far as I was concerned, small dogs were just yappy, annoying and quite frankly irritating. I never wanted a small dog.

Grandfather's Pocket Watch
He moved slowly from the hospital bed to the bathroom. I watched his agony. I looked over at my grandmother. She sat quietly, his pain reflected in her eyes.

The Day I Lost My Son
The day I lost my son was like any other day. I woke up at god awful in the morning and made coffee. My husband came down and we made breakfast while waiting for the kiddo to come down stairs. I remember sitting there, reading random fluff on the internet via my phone, with occasional sips of coffee. The next thing I knew, my child was curled up in my lap, trembling against my chest.

We live in a golden age of insurance. Everything can be insured — your apartment, your car, your body, even your golf game can be insured under the right circumstances. No one likes to risk anything, so it's easy to see why so many people put so much money into insuring against the unknown.
